Sise Bingöl, an 85-year-old Kurdish woman who was arrested by the Turkish government led by President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and was returned to prison after an eight-day hospitalization, reportedly told her daughter in the weekly visitation that “Get me out of here and take me my village before I die.”
Sisê Bingol, who was given an approved 4 years and 2 months prison sentence that she has been serving in the Tarsus Type T Closed Women’s Prison, reportedly continues to remain in severe medical condition.
Bingol was hospitalized in the Mersin University Faculty of Medicine Hospital to be issued a report that states her health is not fit for prison on November 2. Bingol was treated in the hospital for 8 days and was released after the procedures were completed, despite her condition not improving.
However, Bingöl was sent back to the Tarsus Type T Closed Women’s Prison, and her daughter Hasbike Kanmaz’s request to accompany her was rejected by the prosecutor’s office.
According to pro-Kurdish Fırat news agency (ANF), Bingol met with her daughter in the weekly visitation and sent her regards to all who showed solidarity with her. Bingö reportedly said that “If you can, get me out of here and take me to my village before I die.”
The report said that Hasbike Kanmaz said that “My mother couldn’t have her blood tests and routine checks because she was fatigued. I told her to have the tests done so we can get the medical report. She is supported by other prisoners in there. Her ward mates tend to her every need. My mother is calling for awareness for the public. She wants to get out at once.”
It was reported that Bingöl is unable to see to her daily needs and is only able to cope with the help of other prisoners.
Bingöl, who has been in prison since 2017, was sentenced to four years, two months on charges of aiding the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK). Despite a previous report stating that she could not be held in prison, her petition requesting release was denied. Bingöl, who had been released after her first hearing in June 2016, was again sentenced to jail in April 2017.
